If you’re doing fall travel, here are some things you need to remember before embarking on the trip.
Benefits of Fall Travel
I love traveling during the fall. Why?
For one, prices are cheap. From airfare and other forms of transportation to hotels to museums and sightseeing passes, you’re getting the best deals and saving some precious bucks.
Second, since it’s shoulder season, tourist spots are not crowded as there aren’t many travelers milling about.
Third, if you’re outdoors, you’d get a front-seat view of one of the most breathtaking sceneries of the year: a canvas of leaves turning golden, splashes of greens still trying to cling to dear life, and some oranges and browns that have been beaten in the fight—all part of the magnificent spread of autumn.
